The Boston Red Sox swept the Colorado Rockies to win the 2007 World Series! Another spectacular weekend for New England sports fans and another unbelievable story for the Red Sox as Jon Lester, a 23 year old cancer survivor pitched an outstanding game 4 and fellow cancer survivor Mike Lowell was named MVP.
Free tacos for all, free furniture for some and free agency for MVP Mike Lowell. Before the Red Sox had even won the game there was talk about Mike Lowell and whether he would remain with the Red Sox. Boston fans that traveled to Colorado made their opinion heard by chanting "Re-sign Lowell, Re-sign Lowell" and also "Don't sign A-rod" (he may have the best numbers in the MLB, but he's still a Yankee).
Like a broken record, the only song stuck in my head today is "Tessie" by the Dropkick Murphys, a remake of a song that helped Boston rally to win the first World Series in 1903.
If the the Red Sox winning both games in Colorado and sweeping the World Series wasn't enough, the New England Patriots dominated the Redskins for a 52-7 victory on Sunday and remain undefeated. It doesn't get any better than that... except that there was frost on my car this morning, which means it is almost Snowboarding season and I can't wait for fresh powder.
Congrats Boston!
